The Time is Right for Social Work.

Social Work Month in March is a time to celebrate the great profession of social work.

This year the theme for Social Work Month 2022 is The Time is Right for Social Work.

Sometimes we need someone to be there, not fix anything or do anything, but feel supported and cared about. I've decided to celebrate and feature as social worker by asking my self few questions.

Q. What college I am attending?

- RUB Trainee on Bachelor of arts in social work in Samtse.

Q. Why i decide to join this course?

- I always felt my God given purpose was helping others. I love that the social work profession stands apart from other helping professions by focusing on the person in environment to address the multifaceted issues impacting a person's quality of life.

Q. Coolest thing i've done as an S.W.?

- Just being a social worker is the coolest thing knowing that I am impacting a person's quality of life. Still, in 2021 during field work course I had experienced and learnt so many new things in life. After living With the people in the remotest village for 6 month and able to build so called good relationship with the villagers. Even when we leave the village they bid us a grand farewell with tearful of emotions while departing. It will be my favorite memory of youth.

Q. Interesting fact?

- One of my favorite pastimes is singing. When I was younger, I wanted to be a singer, and when I was in primary schools I used to sing during special occasions, second thing I like cooking still I am a bad cook but I m still learning though, I like writing, drawing and of course painting too.

⁣

“I wanted to be a social worker to help people achieve their aspiration. To help people realize their potential. To be an agent of change in my community. To be a voice for others.”

So I want to wish all the social workers around the world " Happy Social Workers Month" to y'll. May god bless us 🙏

Thank You!!!

Article review ✨

The study on the situation of violence against women in Bhutan by NCWC provides insightful information on the state of women's safety in the country. However we could find different viewpoints on the study's findings. On the negative side, the study reveals alarming rates of intimate partner violence and sexual violence against women in Bhutan. For instance, out of the 1,000 women surveyed, nearly 63% reported experiencing at least one form of physical or sexual violence by their partners. Such findings suggest that the government and relevant stakeholders need to take urgent action to address the issue. Failure to do so perpetuates a culture of violence against women and makes it difficult for women to speak out against the abuse. On the positive side, the study sheds light on the extent of violence against women and provides a much-needed platform for advocacy. The National Commission for Women and Children (NCWC) has taken proactive measures to address the issue, such as ...
